Chorus Review

Cosmosymes, especially arcade ones, are not a frequent visitor to today's industry. It is doubly pleasant that Fishlabs has undertaken to make a story-oriented game in this genre. In Chorus, users will take control of the pilot Naru, raised by the Prophet. The self-proclaimed dictator decided to bring the truth to the world in the form of the Choir, which, in his opinion, is harmony and security for all mankind.

In order to better influence the minds of the inhabitants of the galaxy, Nara has mastered special abilities, for which the girl draws from the abyss. The rest of the pilots were unable to connect to the ether, so Nara became the Prophet's favorite. She punished the recalcitrant without a twinge of conscience, and at one point the leader ordered his henchman to destroy an entire colony in Nimica Prime.

Blindly believing your master, girl close to the Prophet "Circle" and the cosmic forces of the colony.

The former favorite tried to forget what she had done, hiding the memory of serving the dictator and her own capabilities deeper. Nara fled to a distant planet, where she took a job as an ordinary scavenger, collecting parts of broken ships for a small Enclave. Until seven years later, members of the Circle invaded the system, intending to attract lost souls to the Horus. Local residents quickly put together a resistance, which Nara immediately joins in. With the help of a skilled pilot, the inhabitants of central Stega manage to repel the first attack of the fanatics, but what they have done only angers the members of the "Circle", promising to pull up large enlisting the support of an old comrade in the form of the sentient spacecraft Forsaken.

Chorus's opening is truly epic, and the plot as a whole is not satisfactory. Nara learns to re-wield almost forgotten powers through rituals and new mechanics. In parallel, the story of the relationship between the pilot and the fighter is developing, which in fact turns out to be not so simple.

Being not just an iron machine, but an AI, "Forsaken" will give the heroine a lot of trouble. In this story arc, players will have several interesting moments and sharp turns, forcing them to better feel the connection between the leading characters.
